RE: Winter tyres

All winter tyres in the UK IIRC are H rated, you cannot get a V rated one. I wish I could get the Coopers here as they would fulfil two jobs with one tyre - some off road ability and winter rating, but they don't seem to be as easy to get in the UK as other brands despite lots of advertising in the Land Rover magazines.
BFG I agree with you about the width of the tread, that's one reason why Defenders have skinny tyres on steel wheels in their "working" spec cars - better off road traction in the mud.

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.
